Reliable, Residue-Free Products for

Use in Laboratory Washing Machines

Extran® AP automated cleaning agents were created in cooperation with leading appliance manufacturers especially for use in laboratory washing machines. Thorough testing in these machines has proven their suitability and cleaning efficiency. In addition to their distinctive cleaning power with extensive universal effects, Extran® AP products greatly limit the formation of foam. Furthermore, the excellent water solubility of all components ensures residue-free cleaning of your laboratory utensils.

Application Advice

To neutralize displaced alkali residues and remove remaining traces of alkali, an acid rinser should be used after every main wash cycle. All neutralizing agents are suitable for this purpose, such as Extran® AP 21 acidic with phosphoric acid, or Extran® AP 22 acidic with citric acid.

Features and Benefits

Developed for lab washing machines

Efficient cleaning

Limited foam formation

Residue-free

Extran® AP 11 Powder, Mild Alkaline

Gentle, universal cleaning agent for alkali-sensitive items

Suitable for items which cannot be tainted with allergenic detergents, e.g. jewelry, glasses

A corrosion inhibitor is included to protect glass and ceramics

Does not foam even during heavy agitation in a washing machine

Extran® AP 12 Powder, Alkaline

Active, universal cleaning agent for main wash cycle

Cleans even heavily soiled items and removes dried or burned residues

Particularly suitable for removal of starch and protein residues

Does not foam even during heavy agitation in a washing machine

Extran® AP 13 Powder, Alkaline with Detergents

Intensive cleaning agent for main wash cycle

Particularly effective against grease and oil deposits

Also removesother organic and inorganic residues

Extran® AP 16 Liquid, Mild Alkaline Concentrate

Gentle, universal cleaning agent for alkali-sensitive items

Suitable for items which cannot be tainted with allergenic detergents, e.g. jewelry, glasses

Does not foam even during heavy agitation in a washing machine

Extran® AP 17 Liquid, Alkaline Concentrate

Active, universal cleaning agent for main wash cycle

Cleans even heavily soiled items

Particularly suitable for removal of starch and protein residues

Does not foam even during heavy agitation in a washing machine

Extran® AP 21 Liquid, Acidic with Phosphoric Acid

As a pre-wash agent:

Primarily dissolves carbonates and hydroxides from residues

An acidic pre-wash often removes protein substances and organic bases (e.g. amines) better than an alkaline main wash cycle

As a rinsing agent (after alkaline main wash cycle):

Especially suitable for removing remaining traces of alkali

Neutralization effect in case of solution carry-over

Also well suited to removal of calcareous deposits in washing machines

Extran® AP 22 Liquid, Acidic with Citric Acid

As a pre-wash agent:

Primarily dissolves hydroxides from residues

An acidic pre-wash often removes protein substances and organic bases (e.g. amines) better than an alkaline main wash cycle

As a rinsing agent (after alkaline main wash cycle):

Suitable for removing remaining traces of alkali

Neutralization effect in case of solution carry-over

Also well suited to removal of calcareous deposits in washing machines

Our broad portfolio consists of multiplex panels that allow you to choose, within the panel, analytes that best meet your needs. On a separate tab you can choose the premixed cytokine format or a single plex kit.

Cell Signaling Kits & MAPmates™

Choose fixed kits that allow you to explore entire pathways or processes. Or design your own kits by choosing single plex MAPmates™, following the provided guidelines.

The following MAPmates™ should not be plexed together:
-MAPmates™ that require a different assay buffer
-Phospho-specific and total MAPmate™ pairs, e.g. total GSK3β and GSK3β (Ser 9)
-PanTyr and site-specific MAPmates™, e.g. Phospho-EGF Receptor and phospho-STAT1 (Tyr701)
-More than 1 phospho-MAPmate™ for a single target (Akt, STAT3)
-GAPDH and β-Tubulin cannot be plexed with kits or MAPmates™ containing panTyr
